4-PRE-OPERATION CHECKSOwners are personally responsible for their vehicle’s condition. Your motorcycle’s vital functions can start to deteriorate
quickly and unexpectedly, even if it remains unused (for instance, if it is exposed to the elements). Any damage, fluid leak or
loss of tire pressure could have serious consequences. Therefore, it is very important that, in addition to a thorough visual in-
spection, you check the following points before each ride.
EAU00340
PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST
ITEM CHECKS PAGE
Front brake• Check operation, free play, fluid level and vehicle for fluid leakage.
• Fill with DOT 4 brake fluid if necessary.6-16 ~ 6-20
Rear brake• Check operation, free play, fluid level and vehicle for fluid leakage.
• Fill with DOT 4 brake fluid if necessary.6-17 ~ 6-20
Clutch• Check operation condition and free play.
• Adjust if necessary.6-15
Throttle grip and housing• Check for smooth operation.
• Lubricate if necessary.6-12, 6-20
Engine oil• Check oil level.
• Fill with oil if necessary.6-7 ~ 6-9
Final gear oil• Check vehicle for leakage. 6-9 ~ 6-10
Wheels and tires• Check tire pressure, wear, damage and spoke tightness.
• Tighten spokes if necessary.6-13 ~ 6-15

51. Turn the fuel cock to “ON”.
2. Turn the main switch to “ON” and
the engine stop switch to “ ”.
3. Shift transmission into neutral.
NOTE:@ When the transmission is in neutral, the
neutral indicator light should be on. If
the light does not come on, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect it. @
4. Turn on the starter (choke) and
completely close the throttle grip.
5. Start the engine by pushing the
start switch.NOTE:@ If the engine fails to start, release the
start switch, wait a few seconds, then
try again. Each attempt should be as
short as possible to preserve the bat-
tery. Do not crank the engine more
than 10 seconds on any one attempt. @
ECA00023
CAUTION:@ The oil level indicator light should
come on for 2 to 3 seconds when the
main switch is turned to “ON” and
then should go off. If the indicator
light flickers or remains on, immedi-
ately stop the engine and check the
engine oil level and for oil leakage. If
necessary, fill the engine with oil
and check to see that the oil level in-
dicator light goes off. If the light
does not go off even with sufficient
oil in the crankcase or the light does
not come on when the main switch
is turned to “ON”, consult a Yamaha
dealer. @

Tips for reducing fuel
consumptionYour motorcycle’s fuel consumption
depends to a large extent on your
riding style. The following tips can help
reduce fuel consumption:l
Warm up the engine before riding.
l
Turn off the starter (choke) as
soon as possible.
l
Shift up swiftly and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
l
Do not double-clutch or rev the en-
gine while shifting down and avoid
high engine speeds with no load
on the engine.
l
Turn off the engine instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time, i.e. in traffic jams, at traffic
lights or railroad crossings.
EAU01128
Engine break-inThere is never a more important period
in the life of your motorcycle than the
period between zero and 1,600 km. For
this reason we ask that you carefully
read the following material. Because
the engine is brand new, you must not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1,600 km. The various parts in the en-
gine wear and polish themselves to the
correct operating clearances. During
this period, prolonged full throttle oper-
ation, or any condition which might re-
sult in excessive heating of the engine,
must be avoided.
EAU01171
0 ~ 1,000 km
Avoid operation above 1/3 throttle.
1,000 ~ 1,600 km
Avoid cruising speeds in excess of
1/2 throttle.
EC000056
CAUTION:@ After 1,000 km of operation, be sure
to replace the engine oil, oil filter
and final gear oil. @1,600 km and beyond
Proceed with normal riding.
EC000049
CAUTION:@ If any engine trouble should occur
during the break-in period, consult a
Yamaha dealer immediately. @

1. Measure the electrode gap with a
wire thickness gauge and, if nec-
essary, adjust the gap to specifica-
tion.
2. Clean the gasket surface. Wipe off
any grime from the threads.
3. Install the spark plugs and tighten
to the specified torque.
NOTE:@ If a torque wrench is not available when
you are installing a spark plug, a good
estimate of the correct torque is 1/4 to
1/2 turn past finger tight. Have the
spark plug tightened to the specified
torque as soon as possible. @4. Install the spark plug caps and the
cylinder head covers.

1. Place the motorcycle on a level
place and hold it in an upright posi-
tion. Warm up the engine for sev-
eral minutes.NOTE:@ Be sure the motorcycle is positioned
straight up when checking the oil level.
A slight tilt toward the side can result in
false readings. @

the oil level through the level win-
dow located at the lower part of
the left side crankcase cover.
NOTE:@ Wait a few minutes until the oil level
settles before checking. @3. The oil level should be between
the maximum and minimum
marks. If the level is low, fill the en-
gine with sufficient oil to the speci-
fied level.Engine oil replacement
1. Warm up the engine for a few min-
utes.
2. Stop the engine. Place an oil pan
under the engine and remove the
oil filler cap.
3. Remove the drain bolt and drain
the oil.
4. Reinstall the drain bolt and tighten
it to the specified torque.5. Fill the engine with sufficient rec-
ommended oil. Install the oil filler
cap and tighten it.

CAUTION:@ l
Do not put in any chemical addi-
tives. Engine oil also lubricates
the clutch and additives could
cause clutch slippage.

Be sure no foreign material en-
ters the crankcase.
